Father’s Day is this Sunday and if you haven’t got time to head to the shops, here are some suggestions for last minute internet gifts…

These chocolate bars with optional personalised wrapping from The Chocolate Library are a nice alternative to the standard supermarket choc selection. They have a huge range for any occasion.

100g personalised chocolate bars at The Chocolate Library, £5.95

If your Dad is a bit of a foodie, you could make up a hamper of all his favourite bits, or buy one ready made off the shelf. Pre-made hampers like the Smiling Man hamper below are available from the Bill’s Restaurant chain– their food is amazing so would definitely recommend giving the hamper selection a bash!

Smiling Man Hamper at Bill’s, £9.50

Personalised messages could be branded into your Dad’s steak with this funky bit of kit from Hunter Gatherer. The steak brand comes with a selection of letters to create any message you want.

These wine charts by Stuart Gardiner available at Rockett St George are great to let your Dad know which wine goes best with what food. Stuart Gardiner’s website also has a lovely illustrated chart for seasonal vegetable planting- perfect for any Dad’s who like to grow their own!

Love this simple Laurel and Hardy print by Coconut Grass and a bit of a bargain at £9 for an A4 print and £12 for an A3 print.

This Karin Akesson Super Hero Dad print available at Rockett St George may be a tad cheesy but Father’s Day wouldn’t be Father’s Day without a bit of cheese!

Love this Tom Dixon cast mini jack door stop / paper weight available at Heals– would look great in a study.

The embossed moustache and monocle wearing face is a humorous little detail in the back of the hand bound leather Monsieur Notebook range available at Blank Journals.

The Bird Call Trio from Cow & Co is quite a random little gift, but perfect if your Dad is a bit of a bird spotter. These hand carved wooden whistles are designed to recreate the bird call of the Goldfinch, Great Tit and Nuthatch.

Golfing Dads can keep their tees all in one place in Lifecover’s Harris Tweed purse available at Two Red Trees.
